Caroline’s first order of business when the Spartans arrived was to get them cleaned up. When she met resistance (like I’m sure most cat mamas do), she decided to simply give a bathing lesson to the kittens!

Hello Maron! Let’s get all that formula/kitten food off your face.

No WAY lady! Back off!

Hmmm….how am I going to get this little guy clean…

See, you lick your paw, rub your face, repeat. Just like this.

Okay, now you try!

I am happy to report that a week after bathing lessons, all the kittens are doing pretty well with keeping themselves clean! Although that doesn’t stop Caroline from occasionally pinning them and giving them a thorough bath.
